Making friends

I want a friend
by Tony Ross

The Little Princess excitedly starts school wanting to play with everyone but realises that some don't want to play with her. The Little Princess doesn't think she has any friends and then several other children who don't think they have any friends either gradually work out that they can all be friends together.  At the end of the story, the Little Princess invites all her new friends home for tea and, together, they enjoy their lovely treat in each other's company.  This story will help children who are just starting school, by showing them that they are not the only ones who don't know anyone and by reaching out and starting to play with children around them, how easy it is to begin to forge friendships.
